Shave of the Day - Sandalwood and English Fern

Last night I had a conversation with my neighbor who put a couple of straight razors on eBay. He was determined to let me know how dangerous it was to clean them up. They cut right through the towel he was cleaning them with. My response was, it they cannot cut you then you are really not shaving.

As for today, it was a little overcast and it felt like a sandalwood day. I chose the Geo. F. Trumpeter’s Sandalwood Shaving Soap. It has a nice fragrance and it lathered up well with the Simpson Chubby 1. I really enjoyed how well the soap worked as I began to run the Dovo razor across my face. Quickly I reduced the stubble so that I had a slick smooth face. For the finale, I splashed on a liberal dose of Penhaligon’s English Fern.
